Family Travel to Tucson

Tucson, Arizona has many fine hotels and resorts and the fall is a wonderful time to visit. Here is a picture of the beautiful pool area at the Hilton El Conquistador located at the base of the mountains. This was taken in the early morning so it is still a bit hazy, but on a clear sunny day the view of the Santa Catalina Mountains is absolutely tremendous. This resort has several pools, one especially geared for kids. The pool area also has gas fire pits in the outdoor sitting areas near the pool that are very nice when things cool down a bit in the evening. Enjoy golf, tennis, horseback riding or pamper yourself with a massage or at the spa. While you are in Tucson be sure and take the family to the Pima Air Museum. They have a wonderful collection of all types of aircraft. If you enjoy history and the old west, then you may want to visit Tombstone, which is a little over an hour to the southeast. Have fun and stay safe!
